## Resource

Ep. 39 - Pappy & Jack plus 24 Hours of Daytona: Lanny Hester’s Drive for Purpose On this episode of Two Guys On A Porch, Jason and Bradford welcome Dave Schroeder, a longtime Christian publishing veteran who’s worked with authors like Max Lucado and John Eldredge. They dive into the importance of community for men, exploring how to build friendships intentionally, why being part of a supportive circle matters, and what it takes to actually show up for the people around you. Of course, no porch talk is complete without a cigar and whiskey. Tonight, they light up a Cuban Partagás Origen Línea Maestra, and pour a lineup of premium Kentucky whiskeys: Buffalo Trace Blanton’s Foundations 2024 Special Edition, Wild Turkey Russell’s Reserve Single Rickhouse 2024, and Heaven Hill Heritage Collection 19-Year Wheated Whiskey. Deep conversation, great spirits, and a little smoke—this is what the porch is for. Whether you’re into Christian leadership, men’s community, or just love a good cigar and whiskey pairing, this episode proves that meaningful connection and great taste go hand in hand. #TwoGuysOnAPorch #MensCommunity #FriendshipGoals #ChristianPublishing #PartagasCigar #BuffaloTrace #Blantons #WildTurkey #RussellsReserve #HeavenHill #HeritageCollection #Men #Friendship #Presence #Loneliness
